Any or none. Jordans are quite nice to look at. I have an old school pair for indoors only. But if you have flat feet, may need to add arch supports to any shoe. If bunions, may need wider shoe, so that can limit selection. Many companies make good shoes. My personal fave is new balance but they don't have flashy style you may prefer.

Shoe guide. Flat feet and bunions require wider shoes to accommodate the deformity. A rigid, stable shoe is best. No more than 2 inch heels because it puts too much pressure on bunions. More importantly, the shoes have to support the arch whether with built in inserts or store bought inserts. Sandals need to have built in arch supports as well.

Arch supports. All of your issues may be related at least in part to your flat feet. The key focus of treatment is arch supports. I like to try some simple, inexpensive over the counter arch supports and if they have a positive benefit then create more formal long term orthotics.

Yes. Yes, bunions are often caused by a pronated foot which is the cause of a flat foot. The bunions develop over time because of muscle imbalance that results from the pronated foot. I would continue to exercise, but you should have an orthotic to control the pronation and slow down the progression of the bunion deformity.

Bunion care. Having flat feet often times may lead to the development of a bunion deformity. Custom moded orthoces may be of benefit to you. Exercidse is good for you, try wearing wider more comfortable shoes to make it an enjoyable activity.

Yes. Flat feet can cause foot instability that can lead to bunions and hammer toes and other foot and ankle conditions. I would advise a good custom orthotic prior to long term high impact exercise. .

Yes to all. There is a definite correlation. I would highly recommend getting and wearing custom orthotics. You can exercise but have to wear proper sneaker. My suggestion (and I don't get paid by any company) is Asics gel GT2000.

So What. Not to put too fine a point on it, but, there are millions of people out there that have flat feet of varying degrees, and yet, do not have bunions. Some of the best athletes in the world have varying degrees of bunion deformity and yet their performance is not effected. Go figure.

Yes, it is removable. you have options to get relief. The callus may be such that it can just be pared down, padded etc to give temporary relief. Permanent relief will probably require surgery but the procedure is relatively simple and worth doing especially if you are active.

TX OPTIONS. Treatment options for a corn/callus on a hammer toe include a podiatrist trimming it when it builds up, w/ or w/o some digital padding; silicone sleeves work nicely. If this doesn't work for you, surgery can be considered as long as you are fairly healthy.

Medication. This kind of pain can be from many things. Antiinflammatory meds may help relieve swelling (if any). You may want to try custom inserts for your shoes to off load pressure area or restrict excess motion in your foot. Physical therapy may help as well. Good luck!

Pressure relief. I assume you are talking about a shooting pain in your big toe area. This can be caused by the way the shoe rubs over the nerve as the nerve travels over the bunion bump on its way to the end of your toe. Make sure wide shoe does not have seam in that area. Doughnut-type pad may be helpful. Arch support/foot orhtotic may decrease pressure from motion. Ice and topicals to alleviate.

Unfortunately not . Hallux valgus or "bunion" cannot be treated effectively with a brace, but with modified shoe wear. Unstable ankles can benefit from a lace up style brace provided you don't have any anatomic abnormalities predisposing to your instability .
